Question

Although the United States was perhaps the first country to directly protect

employees from sexual harassment in the workplace, this is now a right that
employees can expect globally. This means that Marta, a Certified Public
Accountant and native of Spain, could go to work in Japan for a Hong-Kong
based international accounting corporation and expect to have the same
protections there from sexual harassment as she did in her home country. In
this example, what type of employee is Marta classified as?
O a. Host country national
O b. Third country national
O c. Repatriate
Od. Parent country national

Answer 1

Based on the information you provided, Marta would be classified as a "Third country national" in this example. As a native of Spain working in Japan for a Hong-Kong based corporation, Marta is neither a host country national (from Japan), nor a parent country national (from Hong Kong). Instead, she is a third country national, representing her home country of Spain.
